6.3.1.8 Other Optimization Switches

Since GNAT uses the gcc back end, all the specialized
gcc optimization switches are potentially usable. These switches
have not been extensively tested with GNAT but can generally be expected
to work. Examples of switches in this category are -funroll-loops
and the various target-specific -m options (in particular, it has
been observed that -march=xxx can significantly improve performance
on appropriate machines). For full details of these switches, see
the `Submodel Options' section in the `Hardware Models and Configurations'
chapter of Using the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC).
